Blue screen and now PC not working

[coxmattycox]

Hi all,

Was playing Dirt 2 tonight and I had a BSOD.

Restarted the machine but since nothing comes on the screen. It just boots up for a few seconds then goes off. Monitor doesen't come out of standby.

Recently got a new GFX card, put in the old 1 still doesent work
Tried just using 1 stick of ram, still doesent work.
Reset CMOS, still doesen't work.

Sound like my CPU/MOBO is knackered?

Thanks all

Rotate your sticks of ram if still no joy try them all in all in different slots.

Does your PSU power up? Disconnect and use the hotwire trick (Short green wire with black wire using a small piece of wire etc)

Try another PSU in the system.

Yes the PSU powers up, haven't got a spare. Ill try moving the ram around

Any beeps while powering up and have you got a mobo manual to check what the beeps are telling you?

Not getting any beep , I presume it's built in on the DS3P, from looking around no beep codes with nothing else in = MOBO or CPU?
